This second printing from 1979 revisits the intimate photographs of Araki's wife, Yoko Aoki, whose presence would come to define much of his early work. Made shortly after their marriage, the photographs move effortlessly between the domestic and the poetic, transforming everyday moments into a deeply affectionate portrait of companionship.\u003cspan aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"PDq2pG_selectionAnchor\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"621\" data-end=\"988\"\u003eNeither staged nor sentimental, \u003cem data-start=\"653\" data-end=\"667\"\u003eYoko My Love\u003c\/em\u003e reveals the quiet intimacy that underpins Araki's practice before the darker, more provocative work for which he later became known.
